Virve Rissanen

Helsingin Sanomat

Virve Rissanen works as a tech reporter in Helsingin Sanomat, the largest daily newspaper in Finland. Her stories are published in HS.fi, and they often include a video or an interactive element. Her work also involves both production and post-production of mobile videos. Because of her specialisation and background, she finds it almost natural to explore new ways of storytelling. She has tested 360-experiences on her own before participating Lookout360, in which she produced a journalistic 360 video. She has written about VR and 360 technology for 1,5 years, and now she has started to use those technologies herself for storytelling.
